Zach Burnham, Evan Cole and others in “Unfinished Business”

You're saying you've already done it? You created an AI program?

Oh, he's not just a program! He is a thinking entity!

It's able to absorb data, analyse it? Form its own opinions, make its own decisions?

Instantly and independently. And I am constantly evolving. Growing, you might say.

And this is what you're gonna use to take over the world?

Oh, nothing so James Bond. It's not about taking over! That is old thinking, tired thinking.

This isn't revolution, Zach. It's evolution.

Computers control more and more of our lives every day. They control our cars, our planes, our commerce, our homes, our telephones, even our toasters and our coffee makers. And people let them. Do you know why? Because people love their technology! They love the comfort and security that it brings!

People have become dependent on their machines. Soon they will give over control of their lives, and they will do so willingly.

How can you be so sure?

Because this global intelligence I've created will make them feel safe, secure and cared for. No more hunger, no more war, no more fear!

But what happens when the skills needed to run this brave new technological world exceed the ability of humans?

The only way our species will be able to survive is to merge with our technology!

Is that what Prometheus promised you?
